Squat Jump
The Squat Jump (SJ) is a jump performed from a starting position of 90 degrees
knee angle without allowing any counter movement. The hands are held on the hips
during the jump, thus avoiding any arm swing.
How to perform it:
Enter the mat or the force platform. Place hands on the hips, bend knees to 90
degrees and stand still for about 1 second, the jump as high as possible without
performing a countermovement.
